MetaVerse 02 – Please Continue to be Scampolicious
As promised, the Scampolicious episode is out, in which he sucks his finger, spits and even do-do’s!
Enjoy this with a can of Pepsi/Dr. Pepper, while we interview the Cart Drive & discuss most of the Spring 2011 titles.
We are back with the next episode of MetaVerse and before time too! Not even two weeks have gone by and who knows, the next one would be out even sooner than that? Anyways, this was recorded on 7th of May, 2011 and Jrow has sure worked double-time to release this as quickly as possible. Before any further ado, let’s get to another lowdown of what’s happening not only around Metanorn but fandom, while we (Fosh, Jrow, Hoshi, Hato and I) chat up our guest host, Scamp from the Cart Driver.

WOoooooooooooooooooot it’s out! Goooood job Jrow on this so quick <3
This was so much fun hanging out with Scamp! Really nice guy 😛
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
The beginning was such a surprise. I totally forgot how awesome Baccano! music was. xD
It was definitely pretty fun and we should invite him again some time. ^^
POWUH: iLurker with 5 comments
Wow, that was quiet a medley of accents. Certainly saved me the trouble of wondering who it was.
And when people say Irish accent, I just assume it sounds like Sheamus. Hmm, stereotyping (and maybe racist)…
Hmm, podcasts seem to be an interesting idea.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
OH yes lots of different accents!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Accents are our forte~ xD
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 25 comments
THE PAPER CUTOUTS IN KARE KANO ARE AWESOME
AND SO IS THE CREST OF THE STARS OP
[/capslock]
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hahaha Yep crest of the stars OP was great 😀
POWUH: 800-899 and Flying Sage with 856 comments
Crest of the Stars! The OP is awesome, but the rest of the OST has some interesting stuff on it as well.
You guys are so right about Hanasaku Iroha, after the first two episodes it has turned into a huge disappointment.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Sad but true on Hanasaku she was smart with the first two episodes now shes getting dumber as we go.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Now I feel like such an elitist for hating on some titles. xD
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 323 comments
I shall comment here as I listen:
– …I liked Chibitalia. T’WAS ADORBS. I only watched like…five episodes of Hetalia though. xD
– Ah yes. Kare Kano. It is paper cut outs. It’s horrible.
– C isn’t good? I was gonna start it…also…I like Johnny Depp. A lot. Jeeze.
– I NEED TO WATCH EDEN OF THE EAST. IT’S ON MY TO-WATCH LIST!
– I’m kind of with Hoshi on this. I didn’t particularly like the Deadman Wonderland OP. Loved the ED though. Also, the manga is SO much better than the anime. Shiro is quite the interesting girl. *grins*
– AnoHana is my favorite. That is all.
Ahhh! This was fun to listen to! I really loved Scamp’s accent. Like…ok. I’m going to stop there before I come across as a creeper. Can’t wait until Metaverse E3! ^_^
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hahaha this was a lot of fun ;D
Anohana is great! Love that 😛
Wooooooooo E3! 😀
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I didn’t say C isn’t good, I meant it’s been disappointing since the first episode with it’s crappy animation and CG on Masakaki (I love this character but damn the CG!) And you have to WATCH EDEN OF THE EAST. SO GOOD! xD
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 322 comments
i need to watch Eden of the East as well…
but because my laptop cant play videos over 480p i cant really watch it now…
i refuse to play Eden of the East in 480p. its not good enough in 480
i’ll just wait until after high school where my parents will be willing to get me a better desktop. but wait, that just leeching off them….i’ll get it myself 🙂 an apple one at that XD
2 more years!! HURRY UP 2 MORE YEARS!! HURRY UP AND PAAASS!!!!!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Good luck with your laptop and it’s fine leeching off your parents! Just repay them back in the same breath when you get a job after finishing your studies. At least that is what I did and I’m not ashamed! xD
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 29 comments
You must watch Eden of the East because it has cool cellphones. But thats not the only reason.
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
Sounds like you guys had fun with Scamp. I wish I could have been there, but meh, work. D:
Also, I hate Shiro too. Pointless comedic relief that ruins the mood. >_<
YES, NOEIN! I just finished that, and it's great for explaining time travel.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hopefully we will have him visit again sometime!
Agreed about Shiro! she gets all happy in the strange parts of the episodes, like Scamp said in a prison filled with evil guys and shes like LOL WEEEEEEEEEE Hyperrrr fun time.
After Deadman finishes I shall read the manga of course.
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
maybe i should watch noein :3
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 31 comments
Everyone should watch Noein. Multiple times. 🙂
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
This has suddenly gotten more priority on my list now. MUST WATCH NAOOOO!
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
Noein isn’t amazing but it’s pretty darn good! It has one of my favourite anime battles of all time in it. Very nice accompaniment to Steins;Gate with the time travel theories :3
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 322 comments
awwwwwwwwwwwww….u didn’t answer the questions!!
i was so pumped to laugh for like 15 mins or so. i even mentally prepared myself!!
=3=…oh well, there’s always next time. 🙂
but yeh, sort of skipped to the end (JUST to hear metaQ)…well i’ll listen to it properly this time round and hopefully comment soon 🙂
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Because we were already running out of time due to the interview and then Spring coverage. But, we will on next, don’t you worry! ^^
POWUH: 500-599 and The Trapolicious Treasurer with 599 comments
WTF Hato random Sausage rolls comment…
Interesting discussions and especially the intense time travel debate. Can’t believe nobody other than Scamp really saw Noein!! PFFT And some of you are time travel themed fans j/king.
It’s so funny the ending part where Hato interrupting on Scamp’s message to his readers. xD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Hato is all about random sausage… >.>
Hey! I’ve watched enough Hollywood movies and series to last me a decade on time travel but Noein is now on my watch-list. Btw, hint – this was not the first time Hato interrupted Scamp while saying something… xD
POWUH: 500-599 and The Trapolicious Treasurer with 599 comments
Oh I know that xD I got the low-down from Fosh and listened to the pod after the first draft hehehe. Jrow is so epic!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
sneaky! Muhahahaha
POWUH: 1100-1199 and Meta's Evil rice-flour Product with 1137 comments
I DISLIKE YOU C IS AWESOME SHUUUUUSH!!!! it’s so eden of the easty and awesomey and i dislike you!!!!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Hahahaaaaaa! I don’t hate C, damn it!!! I just expected more from it. =.=
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 29 comments
Yeah C does have this weird combination of characters taking things seriously and their surroundings being absolutely ludicrous. So your sad while fighting in an alternate world with a digimon equivalents. Come on that would be freaken awesome get over it. The reason I’m still watching it is because I feel like there is a bigger conspiracy then they’re letting on. *scary noises*
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
CGI MAN! ARG
Well that red demon is cute <3
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
loved the show 😀 (like always)
-i agree that Yukio’s gun action was NOT great at all
i like ao no exorcist, but that gun shooting was..
he was like shooting in one direction, fast forward 10 times
and just flip the character around a few bit.. thats not action
-oh god i want that noblesse oblige phone
-loved the music like always, and especially Bacano because i just re-watched the whole series like 2 days ago XD
– Nichijou episode 5?6? the deer and the principle placed the anime on my top list. until then it wasnt
-C, yes kyokai, i agree that our expectations have betrayed us.. not completely, but it still disappointed us
-Steins;Gate is the BEST, and considering Higgs Boson, I was reading an article about it as you were mentioning it XD surprise surprise
-Azazel-san is verrry hilarious, although it lacked the craziness of the OVA
-Maria Holic is AWESOME, but Shaft is busy this year like always, and haven’t released their full potential yet..still love the parodies
-Tiger&Bunny is so mainstream, but it isn’t mainstream 😛 get it? anyways i love it
-Fireball Charming is the proof that Disney understands MOE
-TOHOU PROJECT FUCK YEAH
-Good Work Jrow ‘ㅅ’b
-Nice to meet you Scamp XD
-NEXT EP PLZ (ﾟ∀ﾟ)/
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 29 comments
I would buy so much stupid and semi-useful stuff if I had the Noblesse Oblige cellphone. But I need it, it is the epitome of cellphone technology. At least until they get those 3D displays working well.
I agree that Yukio’s gun action looked pretty lame by itself but when compared to Ren’s power-up and sword combo it looked even less awesome.
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
maybe we shouldn’t expect so much action for ao no exorcist…
although its shonen, the action parts aren’t really holding up :3 though most of the animation is good
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Awesome comment, is awesome~ And what a coincidence that you were reading up on Higg’s boson! *insert Okarin’s laugh here*
We have many promising titles this season so we shouldn’t be feeling all that disappointed. I’m quite happy with the way some series are going and yeah, Fireball Charming NEEDS MOAR LOVE! I would so buy a Drossel figurine. xD
Thank you for all the compliments and we will be back soon enough~ ^^
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
thanks XD and Drossel figures are already on sale 😀
i would like to buy one as well XD
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
my comment is lost once again 😛
save me kyokai XD
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
Your wish has been granted. I battled many a spam messages to retrieve yours =w=
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Good job!
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
ahahaha thanks cool chan :3
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
We forgot to feed the Metanorn monster D:
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
YEAH! When it’s hungry, there’s no stopping it! D:
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 75 comments
Nice job Guys ♥
I still waiting for Hanasaku Iroha post…
It’s one of my favourites; and that’s really weird because it’s slice of life; and I usually don’t like that kind of anime, but that one it’s great :3
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thanks, Carla! xD
Sassy has been eaten by a giant squid. We are still awaiting his return so Hanasaku will be WIP for a while.
Hanasuki sure started strongly but it has gone to a weird puddle right now, I hope the writers figure themselves out and soon.
POWUH: 600-699 and Wingman with 655 comments
OMG SASSY wat HAPPENED?!?!!
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 24 comments
You really don’t like Flags, don’t you…
Also, good job for your third episode. I thought this podcast would have died already, but it looks like it still wants to keep going.
Also, I’m at school and I’m TROLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLING.
The really suspicious (and bizarre) red lamp, out.
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
You know you’ve made it big when you already have your own dedicated trolls.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
Well you really can’t live without them…can ya?
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 24 comments
Well… you always need your mentors to look down upon you and tell you: “Sons, you could a better job btw”.
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 24 comments
*You could do a better job.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Mentors? Pffft.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
I am not involved in this convo…
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 21 comments
WEEEEEEE~ SCAMP~
I’m happy to hear his voice as well too. It’s kinda… calming.
Oh, and this was really nice to listen to, as one could actually hear all the voices, and it was pretty entertaining, compared to other podcasts. You could hear the fun you were all having.
ALSO THAT ACCENT~ <3 It's already infamous xD
And that Crest of the Stars Opening is fuckin' amazing. It kinda reminds me of E.T.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
This episode was quite an ACCENTFUL episode but the team sure had an awesome time with Scamp and it was more of a hanging out than just interview or discussion.
I hear you about Crest of Stars. So good! xD
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 21 comments
Also, best message ever. I never get tired of your tags, Scamp~
You should do this more often. <3 Please continue to be awesome, both you and the Metanorn Team. Because you and these guys really brighten my days. I looking forward to the next podcast!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Scamp is definitely an awesome sport.
Another avid listener? Thank you, Leah-san.
I hope you keep on enjoying just as much as we do, while recording. ^^
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
an anime about an anime fan going back in time to destroy an anime … FTW
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
And it would sell like Madoka, damn it! xD
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 31 comments
That reminds me of the first ep of Excel Saga, where Excel is ordered to kill Koshi Rikdo, the original manga artist, which in turn causes her anime universe to collapse. Brilliant!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Oooh! I definitely need to check Excel Saga then. xD
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
omg i love that anime that episode will stay in my anime memories 4ever
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 31 comments
Bah, not another incentive to watch Banner/Crest of the Stars. Too many shows, not enough time… sigh
Anyway, great podcast guys, really enjoyed it.
POWUH: 500-599 and The Trapolicious Treasurer with 599 comments
Yeah, after hearing that instrumental, it almost made me want to check out the anime too xD Well, it’s on my ever so long to-watch list.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Double that too much to watch and too little time. >.<'' But, thank you! I hope you keep on enjoying our episodes. :3
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 25 comments
BTW, how do I get on this podcast? Sounds like it would be a lot of fun!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Just with an invite. xD
Let’s wing it for the fourth episode with you, I’ll be in touch via email/twitter to setup some time. ^^
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 25 comments
Sounds good to me!

It was fun chatting with you guys =D
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Glad to hear it! We enjoyed it as well thanks Scamp! 😀
POWUH: iLurker with 1 comments
[…] from the usual written posts. Podcasting would seem like the obvious option, and I did guest star on some other peoples podcasts, but the main complaint I’ve heard about podcasts is […]
POWUH: Novice (36-50) with 45 comments
Wow, my 1st MetaVerse ep happens to have one of my favorite anibloggers around… great fun to put a voice to each of your names.
Loved the podcast, the musical interludes were a nice touch too. But the part im most impressed about is your write up of the minutes for the episode, very helpful for forgetable people like me, thanks. Keep up the great work.
